FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as the leather and suede materials can be damaged by prolonged water exposure and agitation.

Are these trainers true to size?

The Handball Spezial generally fits true to standard adidas sizing for kids; however, it is always recommended to check the specific UK size guide provided.

Can I use these for indoor sports?

Yes, these trainers were originally designed for indoor sports, and the gum rubber sole provides excellent traction on smooth indoor court surfaces.

How do I remove dirt from the suede T-toe?

Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently rub away surface dust and dirt in the direction of the grain.

Are the laces functional or decorative?

The elastic laces are designed to be low-maintenance, providing a snug fit without the need for traditional knot-tying, while the hook-and-loop strap adds extra security.

Troubleshooting

Hook-and-loop closure losing grip

Clear any lint or debris from the velcro fabric using a stiff brush or a pair of tweezers to restore the bonding strength.

Scuffs on the leather surface

Use a leather conditioner or a matching pink shoe polish to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your adidas Handball Spezial trainers, follow these maintenance tips. Because of the leather and suede components, avoid machine washing these shoes as it can damage the materials. Instead, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For the suede T-toe, use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift dirt and maintain the nap. Ensure the shoes are kept away from direct heat sources when drying, as this can cause the leather to crack. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain their structure.
